Mad 5 Chemistry: extant

Boredom has got me twitter hopping (yeah, creepy I know, guilty as charged) and it looks as if the Mad 5(Glenn, Mitch, Caris, Spike and Nik) are having a pretty good time on campus goofing off together. Also of note: seems like GR3 is a bit of an instagram fiend

"I sense that this group has great spirit and great camaraderie coming in already," Beilein said. "We hope that doesn't change."

Baumgardner also talks about the extra 8 weeks Beilein gets with the freshmen starting this year:

"Under new NCAA legislation, Beilein and his coaching staff can hold workouts with incoming freshmen over the summer, so long as they're enrolled in school -- giving him a jumpstart in prepping them for their college debuts."

That really wasn't intended as a judgment on you. I know this is the new normal. This post isn't even near the creepier end of the new normal. I just don't like the whole damn thing. It amounts to an unhealthy level of access that will eventually lead to something extremely shitty happening to one of these kids.

The U has got people driving around on carts feeding them peanuts...I always thought they were some kind of genetic experiment(what happens to squirrel DNA when there is no resource-driven natural selection?).

This might be the first year I have ever been more excited to watch the Basketball team than the Football team. Still pretty hyped to watch Denard kick some ass out on the field, though!! B1G champs in both sports!!

I heard someone observe that the new athletes on campus this summer seem goofier than in prior years. Not goofy in a bad way, more like playful. They are more into enjoying stuff and less concerned with acting/seeming cool.
